Beneficial Insects.

Beetles are not the only beneficial in
sects by any means. BY far the greater
number are found among the "Hymen-
optera." This order inclues the parasi-
tic Ichneumon flies, which range all the
way from flies an inch or more in length,
to minute species scarcely visible to the
naked eye. The larger kinds deposit
only egg in each victim, while some
Of the smaller leave their entire compile
ment of eggs on caterpillar. A well
known example, which is familiar to
most gardeners, may be found in the To-
mato worm. Asmall, black microgaster
fly goes peering about among the toma-
to vines until it espiesa worm IN which
it lays its eggs. These soon hatch, and
the tiny Larvae eat their way into the
worm and are soon thickly packed
between the skin and vital organs,
where they eat all the substance that
would otherwise go to make the future
moth, and their presence does not pre-
vent the worm from eating and grow
ing until the little parasites are full fed,
when they eat their way out of their
host, and each stands on end and spins
for itself a tiny white cocoon. Some
times these cocoons are so numerous
that the back of the worm is almost
entirely covered with them, and now it
shriyels and rapidly shrinks in size and
soon dies. And this work of destruction
is constantly going on all around us.
Were it not for these parasites vegeta-
ton could scarcely exist on the earth.

A DAINTY BREAKFAST DISH
To cold cOrned or roast beef, minced
and freed from gristle or strings, add
an equal quantity Of mashed or sliced
boiled potato. Mix well together, and
season with pepper and salt. Put into
a frying pan a large cupful of
boiling water, with half as much gravy
from which the fat has been skinned,
and a teaspoonful of made mustard.
II you have no gravy, substitute soup
stock or a cupful OF soup left over
from yesterday. Boil up briskly before
stirring in the chopped meat and
potato. Toss and stir until the con-
tents Of the pan are a bubbling, smok-
ing heap. Be careful that the hash ls
not too stiff. Add more boiling water
should the meat aud potato absorb the
liquid too rapidly, and do not let the
hash stick to the bottom Of the pan.
The country housekeeper who has
plenty of butter can improve this dish
by stirring a tablespoonful into the hot
water and gravy. If you have neither
gravy nor stock, double the quantity of
butter, disSolving in the boiling water.
Serve in a deep covered dish.

How TO CLEAN LACE.-To clean 8
white lace veil boil II fifteen minutes in
a solution Of white soap and water;
put it into a basin Of warm suds and
keep gently squeezing it until it IS
clean. Do not rub it. Take a basin
Of cold water, into which put a few
drops of blueing; rinse the veil in 1t;
next rinse it in a thin rice or gum
arabic water. Stretch it out even and
pin it to dry on a clean white cloth;
fasten each scallop down with a pin.
When dry, lay a thin piece Of muslin
over it and iron on the wrong side. TO
clean thread lace take a large bottle
and cover 1t with clean muslin and
wind the lace around it, securing the
ends with a needle aud thread; set the
bottle upright in strong cold suds and
place ii in the sun. Keep it In the sun
for a week, changing the lather daily,
and always rubbing it slightly when
the sGds are renewed. At the end OF
the week take it off the bottle, and,
without rinsing it, pin it backward
and forward on a large pillow, covered
with a tight, clean case. Every seal
lop must have a separate pin. The
plain edge must be pinned well down
also. When quite dry, take it off, but
do not starch, iron or press 1t.
